will the kick be good?

Question

A field goal is attempted when the football is at the center of the field, 40 yd from the goalposts. if the kicker gives the ball a celocity of 40ft/s toward the goalpost at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal, with the kick be good? the crossbar if 10 ft above ground and must clear this height.

Answer 1

The vertical and horizontal components of the velocity are both 28 ft/sec. Acceleration due to gravity is 32 ft/sec². Thus the ball will climb for:
t = 28/32 = 0.88 sec

The drop to 10 ft takes:
t = 18/32 = 0.56 sec

for a total of 1.4 sec

The ball will travel horizontally for:
x = 28 * 1.4 = 40 ft

Nope. All answers to 2 sig figs.
